What We’ll Do
Come out to an all day writing retreat at Strawflower Flower Farm, located on one of Delaware County's highest points. Arrive to the gazebo at 8:30am for breakfast, tea, coffee, and a chance to meet everyone. Starting at 9:00, we will assemble outdoors, with a view of the flower fields, and write on a prompt to warm us up. We will then have a one-hour block of time to work on a longer project of our choice in a variety of outdoor/highly-ventilated spaces. A lunch break in the gazebo will give us time to socialize and enjoy delicious seasonal food. After lunch, we will have another two-hour writing block, followed by sharing our progress. During this time, Louise will offer 15 minute consults on attendee's projects. At 3:30 we'll enjoy some dessert, with another chance to socialize. At 4:00 we'll step into the high tunnels to cut flowers and create our own arrangements.
